      Potential Careers
      Data Scientist
      The role of a data scientist is to collect, analyze and make sense of large amounts of data — finding trends, discovering patterns and identifying potential new strategies and solutions as a result. Data scientists often rely on a combination of computer science and machine learning knowledge to devise new methods of data analysis.
      Software Engineer
      The software engineer role is as varied as the companies who seek such professionals. In general, a person in this role will help in creating software capable of solving complicated problems.
      Software Development Engineer
      Software development engineer (SDE) positions can be found in any number of industries. The role of an SDE is typically to design and build computer systems and software — either from scratch or by modifying existing systems and codebase.
